About the Business

Ready to own one of Sawtell’s favourite local hangouts?

Morty’s Joint enjoys a prime position on Sawtell’s iconic fig tree-lined main street – just 10 minutes south of Coffs Harbour on the NSW Mid North Coast.

High visibility with large street-facing windows and outdoor footpath seating, benefiting from strong foot traffic from beachgoers, families, weekend crowds, holiday-makers and locals.

This much-loved fully licensed spot is a laid-back bar and eatery serving signature fried chicken and burgers, complemented by a well-curated drinks list of craft beers, small-producer wines, and house cocktails. The venue was featured in the 2025 & 2026 SMH Good Food Guide, reinforcing its reputation as a standout local dining spot.

The interior blends relaxed charm with a touch of dive-bar soul. Wooden floors, leather booths, tiled walls, exposed brick, curated artwork, fairy lights, and large windows bringing in natural light and street atmosphere.

A full-size pool table at the front is the social magnet, with free games encouraging groups to linger and order another round. Outdoor footpath seating is ideal for people-watching and casual drinks.
